Eight Kent State University students and their parents are beyond grateful for what Steve Harvey has just done for them. Though Steve’s TV hosting career has been sliced in half- after his daytime talk show The Steve Harvey Show, was kicked to the curb- The Family Feud host is not letting that block the blessings of others. Matter of fact, Steve is blessing folks in his own way.
The comedian’s alma mater, Kent State University, has now confirmed that Harvey will be paying the full tuition of 8 freshmen for it’s upcoming Fall season:
Via NY Daily News- Harvey, 62, is paying for eight students to attend Kent State University, his alma mater. The scholarships, averaging about $23,000 each, will cover all costs for the incoming freshmen, the university said in a statement.
The students, seven from Ohio and one from Maryland, will need to keep up a grade point average of 2.5 each semester, according to the Kent, Ohio, school.
Steve Harvey was compelled to do such a generous gesture for the 8 college students after Kent State loss one of their own in 2017:
Harvey’s gesture was made in honor of Kent State student Devin Moore, who died in 2017 while playing basketball at the school.
